To enable right clicking on a Windows Form Control, you need to create a ContextMenuStrip then set that menu as the controls specific context menu.

Here's some quick pictures to help out:

Thanks for your answer Kimpl.
I ve done that and now when clicking in the listview, the contextmenu shows.
But the problem is that i want to show that menu only if he clicks in a selected item.
How can i do that ?
Thanks

I could do it !!!

I have done this:

private void conectadosView_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
        {           
          if ((e.Button == MouseButtons.Right) && (conectadosView.GetItemAt(e.X, e.Y)!= null)) //If it's the right button.
            {
              
                    contextMenuStrip1.Show(this.conectadosView, e.Location);
             
            }
        }
